Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Our pickup shuttle was delayed but the hotel made up for the delay by giving us a late checkout and breakfast.
It is the second time we stayed and we will stay again.
Big hotel, nice pool. Room was was spacious with a clean bathroom but the carpet in the room was absolutely filthy. Stains everywhere. I didn't want to walk around in the room and did use the provided paper slippers. Also the window did not seal-there was an actual gap, and the room faces the street so I had to sleep with earplugs.

We arrived just after midnight. The staff were very couteous and helpful.
There was a mix up with booking the free shuttle. I never received a confirmation or knew who to look for so ended up catching a taxi.
Instead we received a free shuttle back to the airport before lunch.
The room was clean and the beds were comfortable.
Bathroom was clean and adequate, good shower.
Breakfast was not included but we were able to have for mry38 each.
It is not a high end hotel, rather a servicable cheaper hotel. Exactly what we were looking for.
Breakfast was not included but we bought for MR38 per person.
There was a large choice of hot and cold malaysian food. Also tea and coffee from large urns. Toast, cereals, small cakes and slices.
There were alot of families who made use ofthe pool after breakfast.
We were the only 2 Australians visiting.
I would definitely recommend for a stop over.
I stayed here for one night as I was transiting through Kota Kinabalu. The hotel kindly offer a free airport pick-up.
Lovely staff, clean room, and good quality gym and pool facilities. The breakfast was pleasant.
Buffet breakfast disappointing (no eggs!) but lunch and dinner ala carte menu are good and reasonably priced. There are few restaurants within walking distance so it is good that hotel restaurant is okay. Major frustration with room safe. It was rusted and unused. They replaced it but the second one would not work (electronics were bad). I gave up.
Nice place and good hotel view. Hotel parking need to be paid per entry for just RM3 because it was owned by the mall building. Overall I still like this hotel
The property needs an update - the carpet and rooms are all very tired and so are the bathrooms I would not book this again this was only booked due to proximity of the airport - they offered a shuttle to the hotel but the driver came late and we had get a taxi to the hotel

Disliked: Cleanliness
Bed sheets were dirty. Staff was very nice and friendly, but the room itself was not in a very good condition.
We only stayed briefly between connecting flights and booked into two rooms. The staff at reception were absolutely first rate making us very welcome and the rooms were both spotless. We didn’t eat due to our brief staff so cannot comment on the food at the restaurant. The hotel is the perfect choice for quick access to the airport at Koh a Kinabalu which is a cheap taxi ride away.

We slept on the 8th floor and above us was a wedding with very very loud music. I could feel the bass on my pillow. Terrible.
No ability to adjust room temp - only fan speed
Toilet was broken before we arrived
Towels were poor quality and some torn

Fair accommodation for the price paid. Large room, but noisy with a non stop music during the day. Breakfast underwhelming and flavourless. @ballestrinaroundtheworld
Rooms where a delight, clean and comfy, quiet too! Great bathroom! Super parking, cost 5 Myr pr day, but really great deal. Staff are super friendly. Hotel are near many food options. Located shoulder to shoulder to a shopping mall! Convenient shops like 7/11 and others are JUST outside the etrance! Barber shops too! My needs where fullfilled! Even the busy elevators where quick, there are 3 elevators opperating, so no waiting there too! Really good for the price!
Arrived and slow check in. Given room with AC that wouldn't get cool, tv got no stations, and shower was broken! Moved me to a room but after 9 pm and I had 5 am flight the next day. Second room much better, but carpet dingy and everything well worn. Not up to standards of a 4* hotel. Disappointed and will not return.
Very bad room cleanung.
Room service never replace the towel for 3 nights I was staying there. I threw the tower to the toilet floor and it was completely wet. But they pick it up and then put back to the drawer in a big clump!!!!!!!!!!!
Another towel just put on top the toilet flush.
Then never replace the tower at all on the rack for 3 days.
The floor mat also never replaced despite it used 3 days and comoletely wet.
They also simply tidy the bed in a horrible way. No clean the floor either.
They only replace the toiletries and mineral water. Completely mess.
This also happened to my other 2 friends room.
When I went in to the room on day 1, toilet bowl was dirty, whole room was dusty even on the washing sink!
A complete disaster......
